0004955: AH-6M Littlebird
Is it possible to set the 2 inner pylons to something else than the m134's? The loadout I would like to run left to right is: 19x M151 HEPD, GAU-19, GAU-19, 19x M151 HEPD. If it's possible to edit it with DCON's vehicle garage that would be great! This is for a milsim style server.
No tags attached.

It's not really possible.
The M134 mounts are a semi-permanent fixture the AH-6s wings. The mounts are always there even if the gun is not.
i.e. the "milsim" answer is that nothing but the M134 is ever carried there.

So far as bending the milsim aspect for Arma gameplay purposes goes:
To put GAU-19s on the inboard pylons would require making additional models for these guns. The current position of the ammo boxes and ammo belts for the left-hand and right-hand GAU-19s only fits the outboard position on the AH-6.

Making even more model variants for the GAU-19s doesn't seem worth the effort for things that aren't realistically done in US service.
This is also the reason we didn't make the GAU-19s available to the UH-60 EWS/ESSS.

You can force it with the setPylonLoadout (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/setPylonLoadOut [^]) scripting command anyway though:

_vehicle setPylonLoadOut [2, "rhsusf_mag_gau19_melb_left", true]; _vehicle setPylonLoadOut [3, "rhsusf_mag_gau19_melb_right", true]
